VarningsCrossen
The ever-dependable SMHI had a Klass I warning for heavy rain and lightning this morning and there actually were some nasty dark clouds so their forecast might be true. To me it just sounded like absolutely perfect weather to jump on the Ridley and have a nice wet grass session.
My theory that you have to be a proper athlete to actually train in such crap weather was proven true because the only person I saw was runner Mustafa Mohamed. Okay, I also saw a guy on a LVG who looked very pissed off in the rain. To help him feel better I decided to pass him on the grass. I am so kind.
It looks like I need to vary my locations quite a bit because on this my 5th pass I can see a nice trail. Luckily Sävedalen is full of so many little grass hills that I can spread out my tracks and perhaps hide under the disguise of different cycling clubs. But after seeing what horses can do to trails in Jonsered I don't feel too bad about actually churning up some wild grass here and there. Over at Kviberg around the old military building there are also some very nice grass hills for strength sessions.
It wasn't quite wet enough today to get that proper sucking grass but my pass tomorrow after all this rain should be lovely...
